Chapter 8: Sugar is growing up in my family 2

The National College Student Fashion Design Competition is coming soon.
For this competition, the school specially invited Li Mingming, the chief designer of the famous brand Ster, to be the judge. All the students majoring in design are eager to get good results in the competition and lay a more solid foundation for their future career.
Starting from eight o'clock in the morning, Tang Duoduo has been doing the final inspection and repair of her work. This time, the work designed by Tang Duoduo is mainly based on the khaki, white, and light yellow dress worn by Xiaoxiao, which is embellished with intricate patterns. The other pieces are a series of works mainly based on hand drawings. This series of works introduced the concept of furniture patterns in the Renaissance period. The style is relatively clear but elegant, and it looks very historical. The unity of color and style makes the whole series look regular and innovative.
"Duoduo, do you think I am wearing it right? Is there anything that needs to be modified?" Xiaoxiao, who was trying on makeup, looked even more radiant against the backdrop of the long dress.
Tang Duoduo couldn't hide her excitement and praised her repeatedly: "Sister Xiaoxiao, you are so beautiful."
Xiaoxiao posed in front of the mirror and smiled sheepishly: "Duoduo, it's your skirt that makes me beautiful. I believe you will get good results today."
Tang Duoduo scratched her head embarrassedly: "Well, I'll try my best!" After that, she suggested to the makeup artist next to her to lighten the eyeshadow.
After completing the inspection, Tang Duoduo pricked up her ears and listened anxiously to the current game situation.
"Duoduo, don't be nervous. Your skirt is beautiful and unique. I think you will definitely be the first place today." Xiaoxiao comforted Tang Duoduo as she looked around and looked a little nervous.
"There are five more people left before it's my turn. You all are so good, I must not make any mistakes." Tang Duoduo was so nervous that she started talking to herself.
"Don't worry, Tang Duoduo is definitely invincible."
At this time, several familiar figures appeared outside the door.
Wen Yuanxun, Chen Jiayuan, Kang Kang, Qiao Yuran, and Ding Chao all cheered for Tang Duoduo with smiles on their faces.
Looking at this scene, Tang Duoduo's eyes were hot and she felt a little grateful.
"Duoduo, don't worry. You will definitely get the first place in this competition. Now is only the preliminary round, so don't be nervous!" Chen Jiayuan walked to Tang Duoduo and put her arm around her shoulders.
Qiao Yuran also stood beside Tang Duoduo attentively: "Yes, Duoduo, let me tell you, I saw the works of those who just performed, and none of them are as beautiful and innovative as yours."
"Yes, Duoduo, don't be nervous, we are all your strong backers." Kang Kang, who usually looks frivolous, now becomes serious and determined.
Wen Yuanxun walked straight to Tang Duoduo and touched her head: "Don't be afraid, you will definitely win, I believe in you."
Tang Duoduo nodded vigorously. She felt that all the encouragement was not as good as the believing look in Wen Yuanxun's eyes.
Ding Chao was the only one who didn't come over to cheer Tang Duoduo up. He walked to Xiaoxiao's side, and the two of them started to get close again.
Looking at those two people, everyone else felt a strong sense of happiness.
Qiao Yuran seemed to be infected, and his hand couldn't help but move closer to Tang Duoduo's shoulder, but before he touched it, he was grabbed by a pair of hands.
"Qiao Yuran, what do you want to do? Take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of me?" Chen Jiayuan scolded loudly without giving him any face.
Qiao Yuran was a little embarrassed and looked at Kang Kang in annoyance: "Hey, can you please control your girlfriend?"
Kang Kang responded innocently: "I can't control it. She usually controls me!"
Kang Kang's answer caused everyone to laugh. Chen Jiayuan couldn't help but punch him while laughing, and Qiao Yuran couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Tang Duoduo, get ready. It's your turn in two days. Give me some music accompaniment." A staff member ran in to report the progress of the competition. Tang Duoduo quickly handed him the CD on the table.
Each person has seven minutes to present, which means that it will be Tang Duoduo's turn in more than ten minutes.
"Come on, come on, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you can do it." Chen Jiayuan patted Tang Duoduo on the shoulder.
Ding Chao pulled Xiaoxiao in front of everyone and said, "Let's cheer her up in the way our basketball team does!" Then he took the lead in extending his hand, and Xiaoxiao naturally put her hand on top of his.
Qiao Yuran also put his hand forward, followed by Kang Kang, Chen Jiayuan, and Wen Yuanxun.
"Come on, come on." Wen Yuanxun said.
Tang Duoduo took a breath, smiled, and placed her hand on Wen Yuanxun's hand.
"Come on, come on, come on!" Several people shook their hands up and down together.
It was just such a simple action that made Tang Duoduo feel full of power.
“Final check to see if there are any flaws in other works in the series,” Chen Jiayuan reminded.
Tang Duoduo nodded repeatedly, then nervously checked again.
Everyone was praying for her in their hearts, and when they thought everything would go smoothly, a staff member came in with a CD, and his expression looked a little solemn.
"Tang Duoduo, the music is not working and can't be played."
These words made Tang Duoduo completely panic. Without music, the show would not be able to proceed normally!
"How is it possible that it can't be played? We tried it a few days ago ." Chen Jiayuan held the CD, somewhat unbelieving.
Ding Chao and Xiao Xiao were at a loss when they saw this situation.
"Do you have a backup? I'll get it for you. I run fast, so it should be no problem in ten minutes." Qiao Yuran asked.
Tang Duoduo was so anxious that she almost cried. She paced back and forth, "No, I have always used this one and there were no problems. How could this happen? What should I do? What should I do?"
Seeing that she was about to collapse, Wen Yuanxun walked to her side, held her hand, patted her back and soothed her emotions: " It's okay , it's okay, I will help you solve it, don't worry."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Kang Kang who was standing beside him and said, "Kang Kang, go get the guitar, quickly!"
"Okay!" Kang Kang received the order and ran out of the lounge.
"Do you want to play guitar accompaniment?" Chen Jiayuan was overjoyed, as if she had seen a turn for the better.
"Is it the song I heard before? Stefanie Sun's 'Tears Become Poetry'?" Wen Yuan asked.
Tang Duoduo nodded and looked at Wen Yuanxun in front of him. He seemed to be emitting a heroic aura: "Yes, that song is more soothing, and the tone is also in line with the temperament of this series."
"I'm very familiar with that song, and I should be able to play and sing it. But since there's one more person, we may need to make some minor adjustments to the parts. Please see how to make the adjustments."
Such a big problem was solved so quickly that everyone felt relieved.
Tang Duoduo quickly communicated with Xiaoxiao about the adjustments that needed to be made due to the change to real-person accompaniment. Wen Yuanxun, who was standing by, took the guitar that Kang Kang brought over and began to practice nervously.
While Tang Duoduo was explaining to Xiaoxiao, she couldn't help but look at Wen Yuanxun beside her.
It seems that as long as he is by my side, no matter how difficult the problem is, I will find a solution...
This kind of dependence is always because of love...
The white and blue curtain slowly fell, and the entire stage was decorated extremely cleanly. The dry ice machine slowly spewed out white smoke. The students in the audience and the judges showed great interest in the next student to perform.
At this time, Wen Yuanxun walked onto the stage in a low-key manner with a guitar, sat down in the corner on the left, and then slowly plucked the strings.
"Wow, Wen Yuanxun!"
Some students cheered in surprise, and then more students followed suit.
Wen Yuanxun made a gesture to silence everyone, then smiled at everyone. He placed his guitar and plucked the strings gracefully.
As the quiet and soothing top notes sounded, Xiaoxiao walked out slowly from the backstage with graceful steps. Her every frown and smile exuded great magic. The clothes on her body swayed in an elegant arc with her steps. Every pattern and every detail of the lace seam looked perfect.
"Wow..." There were bursts of exclamations from students in the audience.
Everyone was shocked by the exquisiteness of the dress. Its cut, design, and texture didn't look like they were made by a student.
"I have already turned my wounds into roses, my tears have already turned into rain and have long since been reincarnated..." Wen Yuanxun began to sing the first line of the lyrics. His voice was gentle and deep, and it sounded particularly beautiful with such a beautiful scene.
Xiaoxiao danced slowly to the music, showing every detail of her skirt as she raised her hands and spun around. When Wen Yuanxun sang to the climax, she interacted with him remotely, causing the whole audience to scream.
In between Xiaoxiao's graceful dances, other works in Tang Duoduo's series were brought onto the stage one after another. On the rotating circular stage, the works were displayed in 360 degrees.
Such excellent work, coupled with such a creative presentation method, won unanimous praise from the judges in the audience.
“Let me savor it again. It’s not the words that intoxicate me, but I am intoxicated myself. Your taste is always beautiful…” When Wen Yuanxun sang the last part, Xiaoxiao walked to the stage and invited Tang Duoduo to come up.
It was the first time Tang Duoduo stood on such a stage and was a little nervous, but when she saw Wen Yuanxun on the left side of the stage, she was no longer afraid of anything.
Tang Duoduo bowed and thanked everyone together with Xiaoxiao.
The performance ended, and the host walked to the front of the stage: "Okay, this is the work of No. 25 student Tang Duoduo. Come on, Tang Duoduo, introduce yourself to everyone."
Tang Duoduo picked up the microphone, her fingers trembling a little. At this moment, Wen Yuanxun walked to her side.
"Don't be afraid." Wen Yuanxun looked straight ahead and spoke softly as if nothing had happened.
Tang Duoduo nodded, and then slowly spoke: "Hello everyone, I am Tang Duoduo from Class 5 of the Design Department. I am very happy to share my work with you."
"Okay, I've introduced myself. Now it's time for the judges to ask questions."
The first judge to ask a question was Li Mingming, the chief designer of Ster. He looked very friendly with a smile: "Tang Duoduo, I like your works very much. They are very complete and special. I would like to ask, where does your inspiration come ?"
Tang Duoduo took the microphone: "The inspiration came from the props of the drama club, the tables and chairs. The patterns on them are very beautiful, so I thought maybe I could use them on clothes."
Hearing this answer, all the judges nodded with satisfaction.
"I am very optimistic about you, I will give you the highest score I can!" said Li Mingming.
Hearing this answer, Tang Duoduo was overjoyed. She looked directly at Wen Yuanxun beside her, and the two looked at each other affectionately.
After returning to the stage, Tang Duoduo immediately hugged Chen Jiayuan, who was even more excited and nervous than her.
"Tang Duoduo, you will definitely get first place, definitely first place!" Chen Jiayuan shouted excitedly.
"I also think that Duoduo, you will definitely be first!" Qiao Yuran also echoed.
"I said first, and you said first. Do you have your own ideas?" Chen Jiayuan couldn't help but squeeze towards Qiao Yuran.
Qiao Yuran glanced at Kang Kang and wanted to say something but held back.
Ding Chao came out to preside over the situation: "Okay, everyone wait together, there are still five students to present, and then we will know the overall ranking."
"Well, let's wait together." Xiaoxiao agreed.
Everyone sat down on the stools, and Tang Duoduo unconsciously sat next to Wen Yuanxun.
Time passed by minute by minute, and when all the contestants had finished their presentations, the host read out the qualifying places for the preliminary round.
After hearing nine names, only one spot was left. Tang Duoduo, who had not heard her own name yet, was a little nervous.
But when the host said, "The last qualifying spot goes to Tang Duoduo, who also has the highest score in this round," Tang Duoduo couldn't help but jumped up excitedly and hugged Wen Yuanxun, who was sitting next to her, tightly.
Seeing this scene, Qiao Yuran felt a little unhappy and wanted to pull them apart.
Chen Jiayuan immediately stopped them: "Other couples showing their affection is none of your business. Get out of the way." After saying that, Chen Jiayuan pulled Kang Kang and stood in front of him with an arrogant look.
Tang Duoduo hugged Wen Yuanxun and felt like she was embracing the whole world.
I am very happy to win first place, but I am even happier to have Wen Yuanxun share my experience with me...
